The Magical Legend of DestinyOnce upon a time there was once a majestic creature with a body of dolphin and a face of a crab, he was named Crabsimus Prime of the Crustacean race who lived in the eastern shores of the east. Their land was full of peace and prosperity until the Lion King attacked. Many have died from this great war, because of this The Great God Jebus cried for the loss of his creations, He cried and cried and cried many tears of sadness it was the worst day of his life, much time has passed and the war faded because many of them drowned from the tears of The Almighty Jebus, He continued to cry until all was lost in the world, His tears replenished the land and rid itself of impurities and corruption and in those tears began a new era. And within this new era, Crabsimus Prime sought to find a way to control how these tears could be used only for good in order for it not to fall into the wrong hands, and by good he most likely meant for the good of the Crustacean race. so he sought the wisest sage of them all, the sage that went by the name “Bob”. Bob along with his brother Pikamon. Crabsimus asked Bob “oh great sage however shall I be able to control these tears and guarantee it shall not fall to the Lion Kings nation, which was recuperating from their great loss to seek revenge on the Crustaceans with their new leader “Jim” the evil Jim wanted to use these tears to take over the eastern shores of the east in which the Crustaceans reside and thus sought to gain the approval and friendship of the Great God Jebus by attempting to fool him into believing he is good, and thus the Great God Jebus decided to call out a meeting between the leader of the Crustaceans the honorable and mighty Crabsimus Prime who is now accompanied by the great sage Bob as well as his brother Pikamon to try to determine whether Jim was “speaking the truth, or if it is in fact only a clever ruse” which shall be determined only by...

...Marquez's story is representative of the genre of magic realism. This type of work is very imaginative and fun-loving. It can also be meant as "pleasant realism" or a joke upon it, suggesting a new type of fiction--one where we can appreciate, learn, and grow. Basically, it is about a town that finds the body of a dead man wash ashore. He is a stranger to those parts, and being the people they were, the townspeople decide to look more into the person. The men try to find his town, while the women help to clean him up. They realize he is unlike someone they have ever seen--large, massive, and handsome. They create a fixed reality around him, imagining how their lives would have been if he was alive and if he lived in their town. Finally, they decide to let go of the body, and they do so in an elaborate manner. Although the story "The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World," contains many examples of magic realism, two examples of this genre come in the introductory paragraph and in the conclusion. With all the magic realism in this story, many questions arise in the reader's mind about how things occur and why things happen in the story.
First of all, one example comes from the type of diction used, as seen in the introductory paragraph. In the paragraph Marquez uses his imagination to talk about fantasy, creating reality. Rather than just telling the audience that a dead body washed up ashore, he lets them explore their...

American Society: Urban Legends in the Classroom
What is it about America that causes students and people to crave an education? Could it be the intense pressures of society, or could it even be the simple fact that we want to educate ourselves? For centuries people were fine with being un-educated and life was simple and laid back, but when John Cotton (a noted Puritan Minister) established the first public school in America, people began to eat it up. And thus was the start of a race to the top and an obsession in today’s society about education. We are now living life in the fast lane, and most people don’t even have the time to stop and smell the flowers along the way. The Urban Legends, “Open Book”, “Unsolvable Problem”, and “Reward” all have a very similar underlying theme. These three tales all deal with teenagers and their educational journey. Urban Legends with the theme of teenagers, suggest that American Culture values their education because they depict how students are hardworking, success driven, and in some cases, even desperate to get the good grades that their parents desire
Now days, especially in College, almost every student is hardworking. Most know that you need to put in the work and make an effort to see results. In The Urban Legend, “Reward”, a student is working diligently on some math problems in class. The student turns to the next page in his math...

Modern Urban Legends
Many people have heard the tale of the dotty grandmother who tried to dry off her damp poodle by placing it in the microwave oven. The dog exploded, sad to say the least , and Grandma has never been quite the same since. The story is not true; it is an urban legend, circulating by word of mouth since the 1970s (Brunvand, 108). Urban legends are popular stories alleged to be true and transmitted from person to person by oral or written communication. Legends tend to arise spontaneously and are rarely traceable to a single point of origin. They spread primarily from individual to individual through various communication, and only in atypical cases through mass media or other institutional means. Every culture has its folktales, including modern America. However, instead of involving gods and goddesses or princes and princesses, modern society's legends involve "some guy my sister's best friend knows" or "someone who woke up in a motel room." They happened, supposedly, to real people, usually recently, in a particular place. They touch the most sensitive nerves of human minds with ironic twists, gross-out shocks, and moral lessons learned the hard way. However, the most remarkable thing about these stories is that so many people believe them and pass them on. Why does an audience take the storyteller's word at face value, instead...

Urban Legends
In this paper I will explain exactly what an urban legend is,and
give some examples of very popular ones that have been passed by
word of mouth for decades across the United States.
1 " An urban legend is a story that is so bizarre,horrifying,or
unexplainable, that it makes something inside of us want to believe
it." Urban Legends can have traced origins from other countries,
universities, states, or people,that just decided to made up as
incredible story and pass it on to their friends and family members.
Many of these legends were started in the sixties and seventies,
and still continue to be passed on to this day. A good example, is
the horrifying Pop Rocks death. 2"In the seventies ,school kids
passed on the rumor that if Pop Rocks candy was eaten with any
kind of soda,the person's insides would explode". A legend that
eventually forced the candy company company to prove as untrue.
Most urban legends are began with "friend of a friend", which is
a key in realizing that what you are going to hear is probably untrue.
When I was in second grade, a famous legend was passed to
me, the...

...﻿Definition of myth
A myth is a traditional, typically ancient story dealing with supernatural beings, ancestors, or heroes that serves as a fundamental type in the worldview of a people, as by explaining aspects of the natural world or delineating the psychology, customs, or ideals of society.
Definition of legend
A legend is an unverified story which has been passed on from person-to-person. A legend usually includes an element of truth, or is based on historic facts, but with 'mythical qualities'. Legends usually involve heroic characters or fantastic places and often encompass the spiritual beliefs of the culture in which they originate.
Difference between myth and legendLegends are generally stories, which have an actual historical event or person as their starting point, whereas myths are sometimes based on legends but are altered in a way so they’re more of an explanation for something or something to do with supernatural.

...﻿Alchemist Response
The Alchemist is a very convincing and exhilarating book that tells us about following our dreams and taking them to the very end. This novel tells us to leave our boring, everyday lives, risk everything we have, and pursue our “personal legends.” It emphasizes and elucidates the fact that most people in this world want to be told that all their dreams and desires are to come true sooner or later, but Coelho states that in order for them to actually come true we have to struggle and strive to make our fantasies a reality.
This compelling story is about Santiago, a normal shepherd boy, who is indeed, a dreamer. He dreams of finding great treasures and becoming rich, but he just doesn’t know where to start achieving his “personal legend.” Then, just when he was about to give up, Santiago met a very wise man that told him to listen to the omens, and he realized that these omens, good or bad, were all around him. He now knew that on your pursuit of your dreams, the universe and everything that surrounds it would do everything to help you accomplish your “personal legend.” We all believe that the universe is against us in our quest to make our dreams come true, but this novel tells us that if we just strive hard towards our goals, everything will work out in the very end.
As Santiago started heading towards the desert, where he was destined to be, he faced eminent challenges and obstacles that he was...
